Parks & Nature

If you love nature, you will love Springbrook and all its greenery! There are several walking tracks around so I recommend having a google for specific spots to see - some trails only take 20-40 minutes to walk while there other's you could spend hours on.

Essentials

This IGA is super conveniently located - you can walk there in 60 seconds! Keep in mind there aren't as many options as a full grocery store and so the prices are a little higher for certain things - but in a pinch or just for a snack to take home it's perfect.

I go here for the larger stockists such as Woolworths, Coles, chemist and liquor store. There are also specialty stores like a butcher and fruit/veg supplier. It's a one-stop location! Additionally there are some chain restaurants and cafes here.

Sightseeing

There's some beautiful views from the top of this hill - right on the coast. You can even take a little walk along the bush path to get a view of Coolangatta as well.
